Do you all know that CL600 is limited to 130mph - 210kmh?

 

how???

 

Yes, all Mercedes are limited to 130MPH other than AMG models which have the limiter set to 155MPH.

 

Maybe in US only.
But it's still strange for me. I didn't know that.
In Europe each MB model is limited to 250kmh/155mph -not only AMG.
Even 500 [an lower] models.

 

All MBs are limited to 130 mph (AMG 150 mph) in USA.
It's easy to delimit the car using Renntech ECU.

 

you don't need renntech to remove the limit.
I can be done by someone who knows what he/she is doing.

 

That's the key word:"someone who knows what he is doing."
Using established tuner to do it is safer and easier.(and still very reasonable,considering what you have to pay for a new Benz)

 

all 500's are 155mph

 

There is no need for new chip to have speed limiter changed. I know this from good source.

 

i have a stock clk320 2004. i was doing 145 on the freeway. are they just fooling me?

 

2003 CL 600 goes into limp mode if I press the accelerator totally to the floor--It hits the speed limiter at 130 easily with the accelerator pressed partially to the floor--So, what is going on???and other than Renntech, who can tune my car for much cheaper AND bump my speed limiter to about 200mph?? I want to keep everything pretty much stock?

 

what is top speed on a stock cl600 with limiter removed?

 

I'm guessing around the 170mph mark.

Probably close to 200 MPH. Renntech limits their 600 ECU tune to 187 mph.

 

That's with a Renntech tune. He's asking about a stock car with the speed limiter removed. A stock CL600 does not have enough power to hit 200mph.

R.K.

 

True but I'd guess closer to 180 MPH. It still has 500 hp stock.

 

and almost 2 tons of car to move...

R.K.

 

I can say that my 01 CL600 has seen 153mph, and I've never had it tuned. Once it hit 150mph, the limiter was like "ease down, fella..."

 

Can u give me some info on how to get the speed limiter removed and who can do it for me--I dont want to have to go to Renntech to do this--pleas help??--thanks

 

The Bently Continental GT does about 200 mph with similar power.

V12TT's run the risk of running into the red-line, though. They're all tragically under-geared.

33.9 mph/1000rpm x 5800 rpm = 196 mph

Correction: its actually 35.6 mph/krpm

My bad, its difficult information to find out for sure.

Still undergeared, though, ought to be more like 40mph/k.

my 04 cl600 stock (without the speedlimiter and 320km/h speedometer) runs 320 km/h smooth - but not checked with GPS, just shown on the speedo.

after ECU / TCU from MKB (now 604hp / 1000NM torque) the car runs 338 km/h, checked with GPS from MKB (the M of MKB is the same M of AMG - Erhard Melcher, the other founder together with HWA).

these guys really know what you need for your 600 TT. they also had a 1000hp M275 in SL, S, CL. a fantastic ride. the fastest car after the CLK GTR supersport i ever had driven.

 

So how is this done and will it hurt my car?

 

You pay.
It will not hurt your car unless you try it.

 

I know this is an old post but my 2003 CL600 is not tuned yet and it shot past 140 (GPS verified) and kept going. I have read on the Benz site its 130 so I wonder whats up?
